Robert Morgan Keeney 3tt iHIpmnnam Head of the Winchester High School English Department for twenty-five years, Robert Keeney personified the high principles of character, scholarship, and leadership for which he stood. All of us who were privileged to know him will long remember him for the warmth of his personality and for his quiet understanding. Kind and considerate, devoted to his high calling, Mr. Keeney inspired many of us with both the will and desire to learn. His quiet humor, his implicit trust in us, and his friendly guidance endeared him to his students. Far more than a teacher, sharing his philosophy with us, “Tex” Keeney was our friend and confidant.

No other country offers its youth what this country offers us. In this land of freedom and equality there is endless opportunity for all. Some of us are destined to become the political, economic, and social leaders of our country; while even more will be numbered in the greater mass of the steadfast citizenry. As we leave Win¬ chester High School, we will share in the burdens of our fellow countrymen in upholding the democratic principles which have made this nation what it is. Winchester High School has pre¬ pared us to meet our responsibilities squarely. The school has done its job well. Now, it is our duty to prove it an effort well expended. The integ¬ rity, responsibility, and knowledge which have been stressed throughout the past four years should be reflected in our actions and deeds of the future. We shall always look back on our formative years at Winchester High School with infinite gratitude for the training given us to meet the chal¬ lenges of a troubled world ! ADVERTISEMENTS 101
